Chapter 98 Confession(1/2)
now……
The Lord of Zhuyang County, Xiao, was discussing the general trend of the world with Emperor Yongtai, discussing the Tao family, and even Empress Tao.
The Northern Army and the Southern Army went south in batches and fought bravely, and were one of the few elite soldiers in the world.
However, the number of people lost is that there are fewer people, and one person died is less.
Moreover, when fighting from a long distance, the south was almost penetrated, making it difficult to replenish troops in the local area.
The princes and kings in the world are the same group of small military generals who are taking advantage of the chaos. Although they are a group of mobs, their advantage lies in the fact that they have more money and more food.
There are many soldiers and a wide range of generals.
Even if he lost several games, the princes and kings in the world still have confidence and can continue to fight.
As long as they have enough money and food, they can raise an army of 100,000 people at any time.
Many ants bite the elephant to death.
Faced with the large number of princes, the Northern and Southern Army were also quite difficult, and they could only take steps forward, take steady steps and advance slowly.
Another point is that the people of the world sympathize with the experiences of the princes and kings, and they defect to the princes and kings in public or privately.
The emperor killed the princes and kings, and this was done too unreasonable.
Things spread all over the world, and the emperor's reputation has completely stinked.
Unless the emperor can win this battle, he will openly revise the historical books.
The emperor was asking the Lord of Zhuyang County, "Do you think I can win?"
The lord of Zhuyang County, Xiao, bowed his head slightly, "Your Majesty is the emperor. There may be twists and turns in this battle, but the ending will definitely be Your Majesty's victory. The aristocratic families in the world do not allow the princes to win, they will make efforts soon."
"Is that?" the emperor's tone was quiet.
Xiao lowered his eyes and listened to the emperor's tone, he seemed to have insufficient confidence.
However, Xiao did not dare to take it lightly.
With the friendship between the two when they were young, Xiao knew it well that the emperor in front of him was a very thoughtful person and was best at acting to show weakness.
She said affirmatively: "I firmly believe that Your Majesty will win, so I support Yunge to open up the land. Only when the capital is peaceful and the world is peaceful, will it be meaningful to open up the land."
This reason is very good and powerful, and it seems to please the emperor.
He stared at Xiao, "You are old!"
Xiao smiled, "In a blink of an eye, decades have passed, how can we not grow old?"
"I'm old too!" The emperor sighed, "I still remember that when my brothers and sisters were attending classes in the palace..."
Xiao lowered his head, smiled sarcastically, and calmed down in a blink of an eye.
Now, it is meaningless to mention the past.
The emperor suddenly asked, "Do you hate the late emperor? Do you hate the emperor's grandfather? Do you hate me?"
The emperor's grandfather is Emperor Zhongzong.
The former emperor was Emperor Xuanzong Yuanping.
Emperor Zhongzong gave the death of "Crown Prince Zhang Yi" and regretted it later.
Emperor Xuanzong Yuanping was closely related to the death of Prince Zhang Yi.
It is hard to say whether the case of rebellion was planned by Emperor Xuanzong Yuanping.
A lot of evidence and many people have disappeared.
The only thing that Xiao family can be sure of is that after Emperor Xuanzong Yuanping ascended the throne and became emperor, he once wanted to kill her.
At this moment, facing the emperor's questioning, she answered cautiously: "I don't hate anyone! Right and wrong are already the past. Living people must always look forward, not think about themselves, but also plan for their children."
Emperor Yongtai stared at her, as if he wanted to judge the truth from her eyes.
Xiao followed him to see, looking open and fearless.
Emperor Yongtai smiled and said, "You are still as brave as you were when you were a child."
Xiao shook his head repeatedly, "I am much more timid now."
Emperor Yongtai doesn't think so, "If you are timid, you will not go to the palace to complain, and you will not ask me to thoroughly investigate the assassination of your daughter."
Xiao asked bluntly: "Don't Your Majesty want to thoroughly investigate this matter? That's right, my Yun Ge is just an inconspicuous little girl, neither a court official nor an imperial edict given by the court. It doesn't matter whether she was assassinated or dead."
"Are you complaining?"
"I dare not!" Xiao bowed and lowered his head, his tone was not soft.
Emperor Yongtai snorted coldly, "This winter, how much has happened to your daughter? Do you still need me to remind you?"
Xiao suddenly looked up, "Your Majesty, does it deserve her to be assassinated by Yun Ge in my family? But your Majesty shouldn't forget that everything Yun Ge does is related to people's livelihood and everyone's life. She has not done anything out of the ordinary."
"Isn't it extraordinary to smash the princess's mansion?"
"It seems that Your Majesty wants to settle the score after the autumn, and the matter last year will be revealed. Forget it, I think my family is unlucky, so I'll come to the palace for nothing."
Xiao's tone was very cold, and she was not afraid that Emperor Yongtai would turn against him.
Emperor Yongtai did not turn against me, but his face was a little stinky, "Since I ascended the throne, no one has dared to speak like this in front of me in recent years."
Xiao laughed, "Does Your Majesty want to punish me for death?"
Emperor Yongtai snorted coldly, "You know very well that I cannot cure you for death. Just like the late emperor back then, you hold the imperial edict of the emperor and grandfather in your hand, who can cure you for death?"
But Xiao said, "I am the only one left in the East Palace. Whether I die or not will not affect the overall situation. If I die, Your Majesty will lose his reputation. Letting me live and forcing me to marry my daughter to the prince is the best punishment for me."
Emperor Yongtai smiled, "You still dare to say that you are not resentful. If I listen to you, you are full of resentment."
Xiao's family was frank, "Is my daughter unable to be assassinated and not treated fairly, so how can I not be resentful? Your Majesty refuses to thoroughly investigate the assassination, so I dare to ask that I have the full power to investigate this matter. No matter who is found, Your Majesty will not stop it. I only need to be punished by the culprit and not involve others."
Emperor Yongtai hesitated.
Xiao faced him directly, "Is Your Majesty worried that I would find someone who is incredible? But I believe that the important officials in the court would not be so crazy. The assassination must be instructed by some arrogant person, and they should not be implicated in the court."
Emperor Yongtai asked, "I heard that Yan Yunge caught three live-actioners. He handed them to Jinwuwei. I will give you an explanation."
Xiao shook his head, "I have been to the imperial prison for surviving the throne. I am worried that it will be another Xiao Yi. Lord Tao's death has not yet been closed. It is said that he died unjustly."
Emperor Yongtai was very unhappy, "The Tao family didn't say anything about this, but you came to stand up for the Tao family. Why are you blaming me? I said that I will give all three living words to Jinwuwei, and I will definitely give you an explanation."
Xiao asked, "What would happen if he didn't hand over the person to Jinwu Guard?"
Emperor Yongtai looked cold and said, "You will bear the consequences!"
Xiao seemed to be under pressure from the imperial power, "Forget it, when I go back, I will hand over the people to the Jinwu Guard."
Emperor Yongtai's expression calmed down a little, "As long as you keep your duty, I will not treat you harshly. Even if one day, the Yan family will no longer do it, I will protect you from wealth. After all, we are brothers and sisters."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xiao lowered his head and smiled, and she didn't believe anything about Emperor Yongtai.
What kind of brother and sister has never had the love between brother and sister after the "Crown Prince Zhang Yi" plot against rebellion.
She stood up and said goodbye, "Yun Ge is alone at home, I don't know what she is afraid of. I have to rush back and watch her."
Emperor Yongtai's eyebrows and eyes twitched.
He doesn't know what to say.
Xiao clearly spoke lies with his eyes open.
If it were another girl, she would definitely be afraid when she encountered assassination.
Yan Yunge?
She's afraid of nothing!
She can fight better than anyone else.
The archer who heard that she was caught by her.
Such a tough girl, alone at home, happens to be uncontrollable, and she does whatever she wants.
However, Emperor Yongtai did not try to keep him.
All that should be said is said.
"You go back! After that, the Jinwu Guard will go to the mansion to bring people."
Xiao bowed and left.
...
After the conversation ended, the eunuch dared to report to Emperor Yongtai, "Report to Your Majesty, the Empress is here and has been waiting in the side hall for a long time."
Emperor Yongtai immediately ordered, "Please come in."
"Abide by the order!"
A moment later, Empress Tao was invited to Zhengyang Hall.
"See Your Majesty!" She looked around, "Is the Lord of Zhuyang County not here?"
